Site ResourcesNeed help? This forum contains The Question Thread where you can ask site questions and get in touch with our mods and admins. There are a ton of reference threads to help you learn about our forums, and you can get help with Technical Support and Advertisement Issues.
You have questions? We have answers! Please ask SITE and RULE related questions here! This thread is here to help you with the site; not your life, not Harry Potter, or anything else. This is the main site-wide thread in which newbies and members can ask questions about SS. When your question is answered by a site moderator, your original post will be deleted.
Before you ask a question in this thread, please be sure you've checked the The SS Board Rules and FAQ and checked the relevant threads in the site resources to see if your question has already been addressed. The topics most frequently asked about are linked below under the spoiler tags. If you have issues with advertisements, or you need some technical problems please go to the Technical Support and Advertising Issues thread, found in the Site Resources forum. If you do post here in error when it is a tech issue or advertisement problem, the post will be moved to that thread and any answers will be given there.
Please also give this thread a quick browse before asking your question to see if has already been answered in the most recent pages!
Please refrain from answering questions if you are not a member of the SnitchSeeker Staff Team That means only mods and admins should be giving answers here.
Members are not permitted to answer questions in this thread. It's not that we mind you helping; quite the opposite is true actually. It's more that mods are trained to know the up-to-date answers, the whole answers, and have the ability to check things not everyone is able. If you see us slacking on answering (it happens, we know) that you absolutely know you can help the members with: by all means, VM them and be your wonderfully helpfully self. The mods would appreciate it, the member would appreciate it, and that is what SS is all about anyway: community.

Site Resources & Site Rules Quick Links: Below you will find links to the different guides here in this forum designed to help members and answer common questions. We encourage all newbies and members to check the site rules & FAQ (where you can do a keyword search) and the site resources (where there are guides and FAQs on several important topics) before asking a question as you are likely to find the answer you need on your own without having to wait for a response. If you do not check these places first you'll likely find that you'll be directed to these resources anyway when your question is addressed.
If you have further questions regarding the specifics or detail of the SSRPG (the site wide RPG) please ask those questions in the ssrpg guidelines and questions thread, where the leaders of Hogwarts, The Ministry of Magic, and Diagon Alley, can help you.
SPOILER!!: Fanfiction, Games, Gallery, News & Other
Snitchseeker has several different Question forms which are to be filled out for a variety of purposes. The most notable ones are:
The Sorting Quiz
The re-Sorting
The Ministry Placement
The Wand Quiz
The Owl Post
The Vault Application
The Daily Prophet News Submissions
Username Change request
There are also often questionnaires that are opened for events on site, or for specific member groups as per the needs of various sections of SS. Some of these are only open seasonally, but they all work the same way. Your submitted answers generate a thread in a holding forum that won't be visible to you. This means that you can't double check your submission after you hit that 'submit' button. We highly recommend saving/backing up what you write in a word document or similar, in case there is a problem submitting your questionnaire.
When your questionnaire submits you will see a confirmation on screen. If you do not see this confirmation, your internet connection or browser may have glitched, or we may be experiencing server issues. You can always ask an admin or moderatorof that particular area of SS to check and see if your questionnaire submitted correctly, or if you did not see the confirmation, you can submit again with the information you saved.
Most other forums (games, graphic making, discussions etc) have a sticky thread with guidelines and information specific to that forum.

We've had a book club in the past, and had read-alongs when we had our own radio, but currently there is no active reading groups - if there's a demand something might happen though. In the meantime you can discuss non-HP books here or the HP books here

Unfortunately not at this time. However it can sometimes be easier to use 'SS Lite' which you can set as the skin from the drop down in the bottom left hand corner. You'll need to experiment with this to figure out if its right for you or not.
